I am in the province of Ontario, just east of Toronto. I have grown up in the east end, spent a couple years a bit further east in Canada's capital city of Ottawa, and came back to my old stomping ground just east of Toronto.

As for Tolkien being big in this year area.....I wouldn't say the are is known for being a Tolkien area, but there seems to be enough support the for LOTR movies when they arrive here. What's the matter, James? No glib remark? No pithy comeback?"
